Replaceable feed cable liner is designed to provide consistent arc performance. It also reduces parts cost and service time by allowing a simple means of removing and

replacing liner and not the complete feed cable.

Serviceability. This gun features a cable cover with full-length hook-and-loop closure and integrated strain

reliefs for easy cable maintenance and protection. The gun also features quick connectors between

the control cable and electrical components (trigger, motor, and potentiometer).

Isolated, common, knurled drive roll helps reduce wear, reducing downtime and cost.

Gun feeds .030–3/64 inch right out of the box without need for separate drive

rolls. Kit 230708 is required to run 1/16-inch (1.6 mm) wire.

Easy access to drive assembly and removable head tube

reduces service time. Pressure release lever

allows drive rolls to be held open for

wire changeover.

Guns are warrantied for one year, parts and labor.

The XR-Aluma-Pro gun is designed to be used with the Millermatic® 350P Aluminum power source or XR-AlumaFeed® Suitcase® feeder as part of a push-pull system.

The industry’s most reliable line of push-pull welding guns.
